We have two such drawings in our Honeyman Collection. See:
Ayres, Thomas A. (1816-1858), American

at http://sunsite2.berkeley.edu:28008/dynaweb/oac/calher/honeyman/

There are four drawings by him on sandpaper. Do a keyword search on the
term "sandpaper" and it will direct you to the records and images.
